Asbestos, CO, CO2

Hello, Hello! I hope this weekend brings you all some rest. In this episode we are discussing some "miner" details of asbestos...okay that was dumb, but seriously, asbestos was once mined and used for the production of building materials and other products around the world (still is in some parts) and we just need to discuss the toxic effects it has had/has on the body. Also I feel like we have not given much attention to two special gases that can be deadly in their own right if circumstances allow them to be. I must apologize for my voice in this one, I've been sick all week. Wasn't gonna let it stop us from bringing you this episode though!
Also, I mention during a part in here about a great tiktok account for Spooky Lake Month coming up! If you don't know about Spooky Lake Month check out geodesaurus on tiktok and on IG because I love her account and think you guys might too. She has no idea who I am, I'm just super excited for more of her content lol

The thing about asbestos is like lead for better or worse it is/was extremely useful and hard to replace and retain the same properties. Also asbestos is only dangerous if inhaled people tend to forget that extremely important point. Lead however is dangerous if inhaled or ingested. So please leave either alone if it's intact and and not at risk of being disturbed. If it is at risk have it professionally removed its well worth the time and piece of mind.

Fun fact well not fun but a fact. Firemen get cancer to this day from all of the fire retardant things in their gear. My mom's BFF that I've known my whole life her husband retired from the fire department as the chief and a bunch of the guys after retiring got cancer and that is sad that doing a job saving lives they end up suffering like that.
